Accommodations

Comfortable, convenient and carefree stays

Room accommodations at La Cabana Beach Resort and Casino afford all the conveniences of home, speaking to ease and comfort. These apartment-style units are spacious, welcoming and practical, perfect for short or long stays. Studios and suites at La Cabana provide so many more amenities than do traditional hotel rooms - and at rates so much lower.

Ground floor patios and upper floor terraces of Saturday and Sunday units look out on the pool area at the heart of the resort; turquoise waters, swaying palms and ivory sands of Eagle Beach; or a scenic coastal panorama. Thursday and Friday units overlook lovely tropical gardens. (See the members section for a description of the four check-in patterns of La Cabana's unique timeshare calendar.) Cooled by refreshing trade winds, they are the perfect areas for reading, daydreaming and conversing, an early morning coffee, a mid-day meal or anytime snack or cocktail. Get up early and be serenaded by the chirping of tropical birds; you will be greeted by warm sunshine all day long, magical sunsets at dusk and twinkling starry skies at night. All our rooms are non-smoking. This restriction also applies to Electronic Cigarettes. It is prohibited to smoke in enclosed public areas as well with the exception of the Bar. Smoking is allowed only on the patio of the unit or in the balcony. Non-compliants will be charged an irreversible penalty of US$ 300.00 to their room bill. The penalty amount is subject to change without prior notice.

Though scores of fine restaurants are just minutes away, it's nice to know you have the option to prepare meals right at home in your brand new kitchen. (To stock up, grocery stores are just a short drive away and the mini-market off the main lobby carries all the basics.) After a fun-filled day of camp, beach and pool, the kids have room to stretch out, watch TV and play games while parents prepare something to eat, relax and work on their vacation schedule. Couples and honeymooners can enjoy undisturbed time together in total privacy and comfort.

All the cheerful and spotless rooms at La Cabana have been recently renovated. Tastefully furnished, thoughtfully designed and fully-equipped, accommodations at La Cabana Beach Resort and Casino offer the latest in gracious resort living.
